In the beginning, there was just you and your partners. You did every job. You coded, you met with investors, you emptied the trash and phoned in the midnight pizza. Now you have others to do all that and it's time for you to "be strategic."
Whatever that means.
If you find yourself resisting "being strategic," because it sounds like a fast track to irrelevance, or vaguely like an excuse to slack off, you're not alone. Every leader's temptation is to deal with what's directly in front, because it always seems more urgent and concrete. Unfortunately, if you do that, you put your company at risk. While you concentrate on steering around potholes, you'll miss windfall opportunities, not to mention any signals that the road you're on is leading off a cliff.
This is a tough job, make no mistake. "We need strategic leaders!" is a pretty constant refrain at every company, large and small. One reason the job is so tough: no one really understands what it entails. It's hard to be a strategic leader if you don't know what strategic leaders are supposed to do.
After two decades of advising organizations large and small, my colleagues and I have formed a clear idea of what's required of you in this role. Adaptive strategic leaders — the kind who thrive in today's uncertain environment -- do six things well:
Anticipate
Most of the focus at most companies is on what's directly ahead. The leaders lack "peripheral vision." This can leave your company vulnerable to rivals who detect and act on ambiguous signals. To anticipate well, you must:
Look for game-changing information at the periphery of your industry
Search beyond the current boundaries of your business
Build wide external networks to help you scan the horizon better
Think Critically
"Conventional wisdom" opens you to fewer raised eyebrows and second guessing. But if you swallow every management fad, herdlike belief, and safe opinion at face value, your company loses all competitive advantage. Critical thinkers question everything. To master this skill you must force yourself to:
Reframe problems to get to the bottom of things, in terms of root causes
Challenge current beliefs and mindsets, including your own
Uncover hypocrisy, manipulation, and bias in organizational decisions
InterpretAmbiguity is unsettling. Faced with it, the temptation is to reach for a fast (and potentially wrongheaded) solution. A good strategic leader holds steady, synthesizing information from many sources before developing a viewpoint. To get good at this, you have to:
Seek patterns in multiple sources of data
Encourage others to do the same
Question prevailing assumptions and test multiple hypotheses simultaneously
Decide
Many leaders fall prey to "analysis paralysis." You have to develop processes and enforce them, so that you arrive at a "good enough" position. To do that well, you have to:
Carefully frame the decision to get to the crux of the matter
Balance speed, rigor, quality and agility. Leave perfection to higher powers
Take a stand even with incomplete information and amid diverse views
AlignTotal consensus is rare. A strategic leader must foster open dialogue, build trust and engage key stakeholders, especially when views diverge. To pull that off, you need to:
Understand what drives other people's agendas, including what remains hidden
Bring tough issues to the surface, even when it's uncomfortable
Assess risk tolerance and follow through to build the necessary support
Learn
As your company grows, honest feedback is harder and harder to come by. You have to do what you can to keep it coming. This is crucial because success and failure--especially failure--are valuable sources of organizational learning. Here's what you need to do:
Encourage and exemplify honest, rigorous debriefs to extract lessons
Shift course quickly if you realize you're off track
Celebrate both success and (well-intentioned) failures that provide insight
Do you have what it takes?
Obviously, this is a daunting list of tasks, and frankly, no one is born a black belt in all these different skills. But they can be taught and whatever gaps exist in your skill set can be filled in. I'll cover each of the aspects of strategic leadership in more detail in future columns. But for now, test your own strategic aptitude (or your company's) with the survey at www.decisionstrat.com.

The Book of Leadership and Strategy
An atlternative look at leadership from an ancient Chinese prospective
The subtle arts of management and leadership have been developed over thousands of years by the Chinese. The Book of Leadership and Strategy represents the Taoist culmination of this long tradition and is one of the most prestigious works of ancient Chinese thought. Collected here are insightful teachings on the challenges of leadership on all levels, from organizational management to political statecraft.

https://www.bbvaopenmind.com/en
5th and last section of OpenMind's new book 'Reinventing the Company in the Digital Age' with articles from William K. Klepper, John P. Kotter, Henry Chesbrough, CarolA. Adams and Francisco González.
If we are to adapt the company to a radically changed environment in which production functions, distribution channels, customers, markets and human resources are all different, we must also change the way we manage
and lead our business. The leadership of the company must form a vision and strategy for change and provide a flexible, transparent framework: this way the entire organization can align itself with change, and the process can be properly directed. New structures must be created to support and encourage change while keeping the organization fully operational while the shift is under way.
This transformation process requires opening up the company to a wide range of stakeholders and to the community at large, with a twofold goal: first, to set in motion an ongoing process of open innovation; secondly, to meet society’s demand for values, good practice, respect for the environment, and sustainability. The complexity of the process and the need for strong but open and inclusive leadership to bring it to completion is illustrated by the case study of BBVA, whose transformation is taking place in three closely interrelated domains: technology, corporate culture, and organizational structure.

Leadership

Leadership is both a research area and a practical skill, regarding the ability of an individual or organization to "lead" or guide other individuals, teams, or entire organizations . Controversial viewpoints are present in the literature, among Eastern and Western approaches to leadership, and also within the West, on US vs. European approaches. In US academic environments leadership is defined as "a process of social influence in which a person can enlist the aid and support of others in the accomplishment of a common task". Leadership seen from a European and non-academic perspective encompasses a view of a leader who can be moved both by communitarian goals but also by the search for personal power. As the European researcher Daniele Trevisani states:

Theories

Early western history

The search for the characteristics or traits of leaders has continued for centuries. Philosophical writings from Plato's Republic to Plutarch's Lives have explored the question "What qualities distinguish an individual as a leader?" Underlying this search was the early recognition of the importance of leadership and the assumption that leadership is rooted in the characteristics that certain individuals possess. This idea that leadership is based on individual attributes is known as the "trait theory of leadership".

Strategy

Strategy (from Greek στρατηγία stratēgia, "art of troop leader; office of general, command, generalship") is a high level plan to achieve one or more goals under conditions of uncertainty. In the sense of the "art of the general", which included several subsets of skills including "tactics", siegecraft, logistics etc., the term came into use in the 6th century C.E. in East Roman terminology, and was translated into Western vernacular languages only in the 18th century. From then until the 20th century, the word "strategy" came to denote "a comprehensive way to try to pursue political ends, including the threat or actual use of force, in a dialectic of wills" in a military conflict, in which both adversaries interact.

Strategy is important because the resources available to achieve these goals are usually limited. Strategy generally involves setting goals, determining actions to achieve the goals, and mobilizing resources to execute the actions. A strategy describes how the ends (goals) will be achieved by the means (resources). This is generally tasked with determining strategy. Strategy can be intended or can emerge as a pattern of activity as the organization adapts to its environment or competes. It involves activities such as strategic planning and strategic thinking.

Strategic leadership

Strategic Leadership is the ability of influencing others to voluntarily make decisions that enhance the prospects for the organisation's long-term success while maintaining long-term financial stability.Different leadership approaches impact the vision and direction of growth and the potential success of an organization. To successfully deal with change, all executives need the skills and tools for both strategy formulation and implementation.Managing change and ambiguity requires strategic leaders who not only provide a sense of direction, but who can also build ownership and alignment within their workgroups to implement change.

Processes

Strategic leadership provides techniques that focus organizations when they are deciding on their purpose and best business practices that are critical for remaining competitive and relevant. Being able to learn and adapt has become vital for sustainability. Failure to be able to adapt to changing technology, climate change, and economic factors risks the organization becoming obsolete.

Strategy&

Strategy& is a global strategy consulting firm originally established as Booz Allen Hamilton in the United States in 1914 and is now part of PricewaterhouseCoopers, which acquired the former Booz & Co. on April 4, 2014. The firm is active in a broad range of sectors, including Energy, Healthcare, Financial Services, Chemicals, Telecommunications, Automotive, Aerospace, Media, Technology and Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG).

The company has 57 offices around the world. 70 of the world's largest 100 corporations and 400 of the largest 500 US corporations are Strategy& clients and the firm has been involved in a number of important business episodes, including the dawn of the contract system for Hollywood movies, the merger of the National and American football leagues, and the rescue of the Chrysler corporation from bankruptcy.
On October 30, 2013, it was announced that PwC would buy and merge with Booz & Company (owned by Booz Allen Hamilton until 2008), including the company's name and its 300 partners, subject to a December vote of the Booz & Company partners. The deal closed on April 4, 2014, and the firm was formally renamed to Strategy&.

Strategy is critical to ensure that businesses navigate a changing competitive landscape. Leadership is necessary to rally teams and seize these opportunities.
This challenge requires a different type of leadership - one less focused on a university set of leadership qualities and more focused on the ability to adapt one’s leadership to fit each unique situation. The best leaders are clear about both what they are trying to achieve and how to lead in a specific way tailored to what they are trying to accomplish.

Management 101: The Marriage of Strategy and Leadership

Focusing on strategy alone -- or leadership alone -- misses the big opportunities. Two Wharton professors offer six steps to integrate the two.

Just like when your car is out of alignment (shaky, wobbly and unreliable), your business can get unaligned as well. Make sure that your strategy, tactics and goals are all moving together like a well-oiled and properly aligned vehicle - that way you will make it your destination more quickly and with a smoother ride.

In the beginning, there was just you and your partners. You did every job. You coded, you met with investors, you emptied the trash and phoned in the midnight pizza. Now you have others to do all that and it's time for you to "be strategic."
Whatever that means.
If you find yourself resisting "being strategic," because it sounds like a fast track to irrelevance, or vaguely like an excuse to slack off, you're not alone. Every leader's temptation is to deal with what's directly in front, because it always seems more urgent and concrete. Unfortunately, if you do that, you put your company at risk. While you concentrate on steering around potholes, you'll miss windfall opportunities, not to mention any signals that the road you're on is leading off a cliff.
This is a tough job, make no mistake. "We need strategic leaders!" is a pretty constant refrain at every company, large and small. One reason the job is so tough: no one really understands what it entails. It's hard to be a strategic leader if you don't know what strategic leaders are supposed to do.
After two decades of advising organizations large and small, my colleagues and I have formed a clear idea of what's required of you in this role. Adaptive strategic leaders — the kind who thrive in today's uncertain environment -- do six things well:
Anticipate
Most of the focus at most companies is on what's directly ahead. The leaders lack "peripheral vision." This can leave your company vulnerable to rivals who detect and act on ambiguous signals. To anticipate well, you must:
Look for game-changing information at the periphery of your industry
Search beyond the current boundaries of your business
Build wide external networks to help you scan the horizon better
Think Critically
"Conventional wisdom" opens you to fewer raised eyebrows and second guessing. But if you swallow every management fad, herdlike belief, and safe opinion at face value, your company loses all competitive advantage. Critical thinkers question everything. To master this skill you must force yourself to:
Reframe problems to get to the bottom of things, in terms of root causes
Challenge current beliefs and mindsets, including your own
Uncover hypocrisy, manipulation, and bias in organizational decisions
InterpretAmbiguity is unsettling. Faced with it, the temptation is to reach for a fast (and potentially wrongheaded) solution. A good strategic leader holds steady, synthesizing information from many sources before developing a viewpoint. To get good at this, you have to:
Seek patterns in multiple sources of data
Encourage others to do the same
Question prevailing assumptions and test multiple hypotheses simultaneously
Decide
Many leaders fall prey to "analysis paralysis." You have to develop processes and enforce them, so that you arrive at a "good enough" position. To do that well, you have to:
Carefully frame the decision to get to the crux of the matter
Balance speed, rigor, quality and agility. Leave perfection to higher powers
Take a stand even with incomplete information and amid diverse views
AlignTotal consensus is rare. A strategic leader must foster open dialogue, build trust and engage key stakeholders, especially when views diverge. To pull that off, you need to:
Understand what drives other people's agendas, including what remains hidden
Bring tough issues to the surface, even when it's uncomfortable
Assess risk tolerance and follow through to build the necessary support
Learn
As your company grows, honest feedback is harder and harder to come by. You have to do what you can to keep it coming. This is crucial because success and failure--especially failure--are valuable sources of organizational learning. Here's what you need to do:
Encourage and exemplify honest, rigorous debriefs to extract lessons
Shift course quickly if you realize you're off track
Celebrate both success and (well-intentioned) failures that provide insight
Do you have what it takes?
Obviously, this is a daunting list of tasks, and frankly, no one is born a black belt in all these different skills. But they can be taught and whatever gaps exist in your skill set can be filled in. I'll cover each of the aspects of strategic leadership in more detail in future columns. But for now, test your own strategic aptitude (or your company's) with the survey at www.decisionstrat.com.

5th and last section of OpenMind's new book 'Reinventing the Company in the Digital Age' with articles from William K. Klepper, John P. Kotter, Henry Chesbrough, CarolA. Adams and Francisco González.
If we are to adapt the company to a radically changed environment in which production functions, distribution channels, customers, markets and human resources are all different, we must also change the way we manage
and lead our business. The leadership of the company must form a vision and strategy for change and provide a flexible, transparent framework: this way the entire organization can align itself with change, and the process can be properly directed. New structures must be created to support and encourage change while keeping the organization fully operational while the shift is under way.
This transformation process requires opening up the company to a wide range of stakeholders and to the community at large, with a twofold goal: first, to set in motion an ongoing process of open innovation; secondly, to meet society’s demand for values, good practice, respect for the environment, and sustainability. The complexity of the process and the need for strong but open and inclusive leadership to bring it to completion is illustrated by the case study of BBVA, whose transformation is taking place in three closely interrelated domains: technology, corporate culture, and organizational structure.

Murphy Danahy proposes that we must shift our paradigms about what makes a “good” military leader, and that failing to do so may cause us to lose our next big war. Utilizing several psychological studies about the way that people are hard wired to think, Danahy believes that he has found the key to improving military recruiting and retention programs.
Murphy Danahy is a 2nd Lieutenant in the United States Army. As a Cadet at the United States Military Academy, he was a Psychology major and was particularly interested in how US Army leadership development models have changed over time. He often applied psychological theories to normative analyses on the Army’s leadership evaluation methods.

In this video series, Aaron Olson, co-author of "LEADING WITH STRATEGIC THINKING: 4 ways effective leaders gain insight, drive change & get results" have an engaging conversation on how disruptive forces are sweeping through nearly every industry, placing heightened importance on both strategy and leadership. Strategy is critical to ensure that businesses navigate a changing competitive landscape. Leadership is necessary to rally teams and seize these opportunities.
This challenge requires a different type of leadership - one less focused on a university set of leadership qualities and more focused on the ability to adapt one’s leadership to fit each unique situation. The best leaders are clear about both what they are trying to achieve and how to lead in a specific way tailored to what they are trying to accomplish.
Aaron Olson shared his insight at the 2015 5th SE WisconsinLearning LeadersExchange at Harley-Davidson Museum®, Curating Talent Development SOLUTIONS as a GlobalCohort, is an one-day, multi-track collaboration to learn best practices from the ExecutiveLearning Exchange’s powerful network of learning and talent development leaders.

Today’s ever changing business markets presents great promise as well as threats to senior leaders, especially those managing big and established organizations. Shifting consumer behaviors, emerging technologies and socio-economic trends provide an outstanding opportunity to these leaders to explore more opportunities and grow.
These developments require organizations to be led by dynamic strategic leaders who are more than capable to identify risks, embrace change, navigate unexpected problems and recognize market patterns before their competitors, introduce new business models and eco-systems and seize the growth opportunities by both hands.

Strategic Implementation and Leadership

Wharton Professors Discuss Strategic Leadership

Wharton professors Harbir Singh and Michael Useem came on the Business Builders Show to discuss their book "The Strategic Leader's Roadmap: 6 Steps for Integrating Leadership and Strategy"
Even a strong leader can flounder without an effective strategy, and the most powerful strategy can fail without the right leader. Only those who master and integrate both skills can effectively navigate the challenges that lay ahead for today's organizations.
Join us to hear more about Carlos Ghosn / Nissan, Jack Ma / Alibaba.com, John Chambers of Cisco Systems - and how he applied his "instructive experience" from his days at Wang Laboratories, how Indra Nooyi is leading PepsiCo and other lessons shared by Professors Singh and Useem.
The authors would love to hear from you. You can reach Harbir Sing...

Strategic Leadership, SWOT analysis, and Competitive Advantage

Strategic leadership is concerned with managing the strategy-making process to increase the performance of a company. The goal is to understand the opportunities and threats confronting the organization.

David Relph - Distributed Leadership and Strategy

In June 2013 I was asked to give a talk on leadership. The talk was a great opportunity to discuss some of my reflections on leadership based on the experiences that I have had in the UK military, the low carbon and renewables sector, and the NHS. These are of course, only my thoughts on what is a hugely complex and challenging subject, but I hope that they will be of some interest and provoke some discussion. The theme of the talk was distributed leadership, and it was trailed in the event programme like this:
Leadership has to change. We have seen the systematic decline and even failure of too many organisations and leadership is a critical component. Unless we can re-think how we approach 'moving the people' then the best strategy in the world is worthless. It's clear that a top-down...

In this video series, Aaron Olson, co-author of "LEADING WITH STRATEGIC THINKING: 4 ways effective leaders gain insight, drive change & get results" have an engaging conversation on how disruptive forces are sweeping through nearly every industry, placing heightened importance on both strategy and leadership. Strategy is critical to ensure that businesses navigate a changing competitive landscape. Leadership is necessary to rally teams and seize these opportunities.
This challenge requires a different type of leadership - one less focused on a university set of leadership qualities and more focused on the ability to adapt one’s leadership to fit each unique situation. The best leaders are clear about both what they are trying to achieve and how to lead in a specific way tailored to what they are trying to accomplish.
Aaron Olson shared his insight at the 2015 5th SE WisconsinLearning LeadersExchange at Harley-Davidson Museum®, Curating Talent Development SOLUTIONS as a GlobalCohort, is an one-day, multi-track collaboration to learn best practices from the ExecutiveLearning Exchange’s powerful network of learning and talent development leaders.

Presenter: Tony Mortensen, Director of the ExecutiveDevelopment Programmes
· What is strategic leadership?
· What is effective management?
· Do organisations know the difference?
· What is best for achieving sustainable growth?
The last decade has seen an exponential increase in the number of courses offered in the area of organisational leadership, with almost every major business school worldwide now offering specialised training in this area. Do organisations truly understand the key difference between leadership and management? Do they understand what is needed in their organisation to achieve efficiency, profitability and sustainable growth? If we employ skilled people to undertake the different tasks in an organisation do we really need to manage those people or are we better off allowing them to do what we employed them to do. The flip side of this is that if we do not manage these people effectively then the organisation runs the risk of becoming less efficient and effective at providing society with the desired outcomes.
At odds with both these ideas is the fact that New Zealand is now seen as one of the hardest working countries in the OECD, yet our productivity continues to fall. Therefore, are organisations getting the best from their human resource or are we as a society destined to be out-performed?
Tony has over 18 years' experience in accounting, management and education and is now responsible for executive training through the Master of Business Administration (MBA), Postgraduate Certificate in Strategic Leadership, Master of BusinessManagement (MBM), Master of Professional Accounting (MPA) and Executive Education (short courses).

In June 2013 I was asked to give a talk on leadership. The talk was a great opportunity to discuss some of my reflections on leadership based on the experiences that I have had in the UK military, the low carbon and renewables sector, and the NHS. These are of course, only my thoughts on what is a hugely complex and challenging subject, but I hope that they will be of some interest and provoke some discussion. The theme of the talk was distributed leadership, and it was trailed in the event programme like this:
Leadership has to change. We have seen the systematic decline and even failure of too many organisations and leadership is a critical component. Unless we can re-think how we approach 'moving the people' then the best strategy in the world is worthless. It's clear that a top-down, transactional approach isn't working.
If you haven't got time for the whole talk, then it breaks down to a number of sections that begin as follows:
0.00 Introducing Leadership and trying to get a handle on the concept.
2.34 What do we mean by 'distributed leadership'?
4.32 Leadership as a Philosophy and why this is important.
5.46 How the military does it.

This talk was filmed at 'Leadership and Culture in the wake of Francis', held in London on the 27th of June 2013 and organised by Andrew Vincent (Partner at Academyst LLP) - to whom I want to extent my sincere thanks for an excellent event.

In June 2013 I was asked to give a talk on leadership. The talk was a great opportunity to discuss some of my reflections on leadership based on the experiences that I have had in the UK military, the low carbon and renewables sector, and the NHS. These are of course, only my thoughts on what is a hugely complex and challenging subject, but I hope that they will be of some interest and provoke some discussion. The theme of the talk was distributed leadership, and it was trailed in the event programme like this:
Leadership has to change. We have seen the systematic decline and even failure of too many organisations and leadership is a critical component. Unless we can re-think how we approach 'moving the people' then the best strategy in the world is worthless. It's clear that a top-down, transactional approach isn't working.
If you haven't got time for the whole talk, then it breaks down to a number of sections that begin as follows:
0.00 Introducing Leadership and trying to get a handle on the concept.
2.34 What do we mean by 'distributed leadership'?
4.32 Leadership as a Philosophy and why this is important.
5.46 How the military does it.
8.35 Mission Command
11.53 How can we develop a distributed leadership approach?
17.06 And how do we do this in organisations without a well developed philosophy of leadership?

In the beginning, there was just you and your partners. You did every job. You coded, you met with investors, you emptied the trash and phoned in the midnight pizza. Now you have others to do all that and it's time for you to "be strategic."
Whatever that means.
If you find yourself resisting "being strategic," because it sounds like a fast track to irrelevance, or vaguely like an excuse to slack off, you're not alone. Every leader's temptation is to deal with what's directly in front, because it always seems more urgent and concrete. Unfortunately, if you do that, you put your company at risk. While you concentrate on steering around potholes, you'll miss windfall opportunities, not to mention any signals that the road you're on is leading off a cliff.
This is a tough job, make no mistake. "We need strategic leaders!" is a pretty constant refrain at every company, large and small. One reason the job is so tough: no one really understands what it entails. It's hard to be a strategic leader if you don't know what strategic leaders are supposed to do.
After two decades of advising organizations large and small, my colleagues and I have formed a clear idea of what's required of you in this role. Adaptive strategic leaders — the kind who thrive in today's uncertain environment -- do six things well:
Anticipate
Most of the focus at most companies is on what's directly ahead. The leaders lack "peripheral vision." This can leave your company vulnerable to rivals who detect and act on ambiguous signals. To anticipate well, you must:
Look for game-changing information at the periphery of your industry
Search beyond the current boundaries of your business
Build wide external networks to help you scan the horizon better
Think Critically
"Conventional wisdom" opens you to fewer raised eyebrows and second guessing. But if you swallow every management fad, herdlike belief, and safe opinion at face value, your company loses all competitive advantage. Critical thinkers question everything. To master this skill you must force yourself to:
Reframe problems to get to the bottom of things, in terms of root causes
Challenge current beliefs and mindsets, including your own
Uncover hypocrisy, manipulation, and bias in organizational decisions
InterpretAmbiguity is unsettling. Faced with it, the temptation is to reach for a fast (and potentially wrongheaded) solution. A good strategic leader holds steady, synthesizing information from many sources before developing a viewpoint. To get good at this, you have to:
Seek patterns in multiple sources of data
Encourage others to do the same
Question prevailing assumptions and test multiple hypotheses simultaneously
Decide
Many leaders fall prey to "analysis paralysis." You have to develop processes and enforce them, so that you arrive at a "good enough" position. To do that well, you have to:
Carefully frame the decision to get to the crux of the matter
Balance speed, rigor, quality and agility. Leave perfection to higher powers
Take a stand even with incomplete information and amid diverse views
AlignTotal consensus is rare. A strategic leader must foster open dialogue, build trust and engage key stakeholders, especially when views diverge. To pull that off, you need to:
Understand what drives other people's agendas, including what remains hidden
Bring tough issues to the surface, even when it's uncomfortable
Assess risk tolerance and follow through to build the necessary support
Learn
As your company grows, honest feedback is harder and harder to come by. You have to do what you can to keep it coming. This is crucial because success and failure--especially failure--are valuable sources of organizational learning. Here's what you need to do:
Encourage and exemplify honest, rigorous debriefs to extract lessons
Shift course quickly if you realize you're off track
Celebrate both success and (well-intentioned) failures that provide insight
Do you have what it takes?
Obviously, this is a daunting list of tasks, and frankly, no one is born a black belt in all these different skills. But they can be taught and whatever gaps exist in your skill set can be filled in. I'll cover each of the aspects of strategic leadership in more detail in future columns. But for now, test your own strategic aptitude (or your company's) with the survey at www.decisionstrat.com.

Leadership, Strategy and Management | OpenMind - Reinventing the Company

https://www.bbvaopenmind.com/en
5th and last section of OpenMind's new book 'Reinventing the Company in the Digital Age' with articles from William K. Klepper, John P. Kotter, Henry Chesbrough, CarolA. Adams and Francisco González.
If we are to adapt the company to a radically changed environment in which production functions, distribution channels, customers, markets and human resources are all different, we must also change the way we manage
and lead our business. The leadership of the company must form a vision and strategy for change and provide a flexible, transparent framework: this way the entire organization can align itself with change, and the process can be properly directed. New structures must be created to support and encourage change while keeping the organization fully operational while the shift is under way.
This transformation process requires opening up the company to a wide range of stakeholders and to the community at large, with a twofold goal: first, to set in motion an ongoing process of open innovation; secondly, to meet society’s demand for values, good practice, respect for the environment, and sustainability. The complexity of the process and the need for strong but open and inclusive leadership to bring it to completion is illustrated by the case study of BBVA, whose transformation is taking place in three closely interrelated domains: technology, corporate culture, and organizational structure.

Murphy Danahy proposes that we must shift our paradigms about what makes a “good” military leader, and that failing to do so may cause us to lose our next big war. Utilizing several psychological studies about the way that people are hard wired to think, Danahy believes that he has found the key to improving military recruiting and retention programs.
Murphy Danahy is a 2nd Lieutenant in the United States Army. As a Cadet at the United States Military Academy, he was a Psychology major and was particularly interested in how US Army leadership development models have changed over time. He often applied psychological theories to normative analyses on the Army’s leadership evaluation methods.

In this video series, Aaron Olson, co-author of "LEADING WITH STRATEGIC THINKING: 4 ways effective leaders gain insight, drive change & get results" have an engaging conversation on how disruptive forces are sweeping through nearly every industry, placing heightened importance on both strategy and leadership. Strategy is critical to ensure that businesses navigate a changing competitive landscape. Leadership is necessary to rally teams and seize these opportunities.
This challenge requires a different type of leadership - one less focused on a university set of leadership qualities and more focused on the ability to adapt one’s leadership to fit each unique situation. The best leaders are clear about both what they are trying to achieve and how to lead in a specific way tailored to what they are trying to accomplish.
Aaron Olson shared his insight at the 2015 5th SE WisconsinLearning LeadersExchange at Harley-Davidson Museum®, Curating Talent Development SOLUTIONS as a GlobalCohort, is an one-day, multi-track collaboration to learn best practices from the ExecutiveLearning Exchange’s powerful network of learning and talent development leaders.

What if... We knew the difference between leadership and management?

Presenter: Tony Mortensen, Director of the ExecutiveDevelopment Programmes
· What is strategic leadership?
· What is effective management?
· Do organisations know the difference?
· What is best for achieving sustainable growth?
The last decade has seen an exponential increase in the number of courses offered in the area of organisational leadership, with almost every major business school worldwide now offering specialised training in this area. Do organisations truly understand the key difference between leadership and management? Do they understand what is needed in their organisation to achieve efficiency, profitability and sustainable growth? If we employ skilled people to undertake the different tasks in an organisation do we really need to manage those people or are we better off allowing them to do what we employed them to do. The flip side of this is that if we do not manage these people effectively then the organisation runs the risk of becoming less efficient and effective at providing society with the desired outcomes.
At odds with both these ideas is the fact that New Zealand is now seen as one of the hardest working countries in the OECD, yet our productivity continues to fall. Therefore, are organisations getting the best from their human resource or are we as a society destined to be out-performed?
Tony has over 18 years' experience in accounting, management and education and is now responsible for executive training through the Master of Business Administration (MBA), Postgraduate Certificate in Strategic Leadership, Master of BusinessManagement (MBM), Master of Professional Accounting (MPA) and Executive Education (short courses).

兵者，詭道也。故能而示之不能，用而示之不用，近而示之遠，遠而示之近
"All Warfare is Based on Deception"
- 孫子(Sun Tzu)
The Art of War
by Sunzi (c. 554BC -- c. 496 BC)
Translated by Lionel Giles (1875-1958).
"The Art of War is a Chinese military treatise written during the 6th century BC by Sun Tzu. Composed of 13 chapters, each of which is devoted to one aspect of warfare, it has long been praised as the definitive work on military strategies and tactics of its time. The Art of War is one of the oldest and most famous studies of strategy and has had a huge influence on both military planning and beyond. The Art of War has also been applied, with much success, to business and managerial strategies."

Today’s ever changing business markets presents great promise as well as threats to senior leaders, especially those managing big and established organizations. Shifting consumer behaviors, emerging technologies and socio-economic trends provide an outstanding opportunity to these leaders to explore more opportunities and grow.
These developments require organizations to be led by dynamic strategic leaders who are more than capable to identify risks, embrace change, navigate unexpected problems and recognize market patterns before their competitors, introduce new business models and eco-systems and seize the growth opportunities by both hands.
